Do We Really Have The Right To Own Guns...Out in The OPEN??

Okay the big ado as you know is about how the courts have overturned the ban of having handguns in the Washington DC area. As you know in America's constitution under the Bill Of Rights and the 2nd Amendment it allows the citizens the right to bear arms...that is to have guns. Now yes, I can see having guns as a form of protection or for hunting, unfortunately there are too many crazy who acquire guns, don't use them responsibly and maybe go off in a crazed tangent like all those killings by students who went on a deranged killing spree and killed fellow students and then often themselves. There is one organization, known as OpenCarry.org...that was started and founded in 2004 by Virginia gun-rights activists John Pierce and Mike Stollenwerk and has served to ignite the "Open Carry Movement" that is sweeping the country. http://opencarry.org/press.html http://opencarry.org/index.html The aim (no pun intended) is to put pressure on govt officials to eventually allow ALL citizens in this country who own handguns to be allowed to carry handguns OPENLY in the public wherever the person wants to go in the same fashion that cops do...in other words the right to openly carry a gun (pack a pistol) while going to the mall, supermarket, movies, heck even DisneyWorld, wherever....In fact in the video that they show at the website,..you see a pleasant, quaint family cook out barbeque...with one difference..everyone is packing a pistol, while flipping burgers. Yes, I can see having a gun in one's possession at home to protect one's home and warding off potential burglars...but to carry a gun openly to the mall? I mean COME ON! I mean I don't know about you...but if everyone who owned a gun suddenly was allowed to carry them openly..wouldn't that make you just a tad nervous? Lets face it ..not ALL gun owners are responsible people and maybe all too many might be a bit trigger happy. So are you for or against this "open carry" policy? I think you can guess...I'm against
